We Empower - A Must Read!

eherzer

I was in Barnes & Noble this weekend and came across a wonderful book that everyone needs a copy of - to go beside Ariane's treasure of a book of course ;) The book is We Empower - Inspirational Wisdom for Women. This was born out of the California Women's Conference and is filled with the most inspiring and mind provoking quotes from the people who have spoken at and been a part of the conference - Ariane is quoted in the book too. I viewed parts of the Calif Women's Conf on the web and found myself so motivated and ready to make things happen - to truly be the architect of my life! I also attended the Texas Women's Conference in Houston the week prior to the Calif Women's Conf and attended a session that Ariane was participating in, and met her afterward at her book signing. And, she really is as wonderful in person as she comes across on here! So, if you would like to have inspiration in your hands whenever you need that extra push - or would just like to begin each day a little more inspired, then I would highly recommend this book.

Books are amazing and they are one of my true loves and obsessions!

I love the phrase, "be the architect of my life", too I somewhat borrowed that from Maria Shriver, and she would certainly be someone to listen to and be inspired by!

I really like the phrase "be the architect of my life"! Feeling in control, and almost designing what you want your life to be in an empowering, enthusiastic way.

Thanks for sharing! It sounds like a fabulous book, and, ooo, do I love my books.

Not surprising at all about Ariane -- only a wonderful woman could write such a fabulous book!
